Dead Sea Salt

Dead Sea Salt: The Dead Sea is situated 400 m below sea level. No other site in the world provides such an extraordinary combination of natural elements with the capability to rehabilitate and restore physiological functions. Over millions of years, the hot dry air and high evaporation rate have contributed to the high salt concentration present in the Dead Sea making it one of the saltiest lakes in the world. Compared to the 3% salt content of ordinary sea water, Dead Sea water contains 32% salts with relatively high concentration of minerals such as magnesium, calcium, bromide and potassium. The hot sulphur springs and mud deposits provide treatment for a variety of ailments. The heat, concentration of salts on the skin and the enforced relaxation are all helpful, particularly for muscular and joint conditions such as rheumatism and arthritis, fractures, and several skin diseases including psoriasis. Compared to regular sea water, the water of the Dead Sea contains 20 times as much bromine, 15 times as much magnesium and 10 times as much iodine.
